---> Play Intro (x2)
---> Play Verse (x2)
---> Play Verse over:
I don't Jones for nothing 'cause that's a waste
Waste of space in my frontal love and
I just sit, deal with it, don't have a fit
Do you know what I'm saying?
I just get as down as I can
Don't look to relief from a troubled young man
Just take a piece, sometimes it sucks
---> Play Riff 1
---> Play Verse over:
Oh I'm not too sure If I can do this on my own guys
Like I'm thinking maybe we should form a support group
Or perhaps a church sponsored youth group
---> Play Riff 2
---> Play Riff 2 over:
Oh, and then then I say I looked the other way
I changed my point of view
And here's what I do
---> Play Riff 3 (x2)
---> Play Verse over:
This too shall pass
This too shall pass
This too shall pass
This...
All the good times, all the bad times
Face it bro, they all will pass
Your problems with seem inconsequential and trivial
When you realize one thing
We're just a speck of dirt on this golf ball called Earth
So get stupid and sing
---> Play Riff 2
---> Play Riff 2 over:
Oh, and then then I say I looked the other way
I changed my point of view
And here's what I do
---> Play Riff 3 (x2)
---> Play Riff 4 (x2)
---> No guitar over:
This song has passed
---> Play sustained E5 (x799xx)
